    Honking and sneezing, treatment?

    Hi all! I have a 3 year old chicken who just started honking and sneezing. I have her separated from the rest of the flock. I believe this is respiratory. She does not have any eye drainage or bubbling. I have tylosin, enrofloxacin on hand. Should I treat with antibiotics? If so, which one?

    Stridor PLEASE HELP

    She just passed. She was such a sweet chicken I’m so sad to see her go. I’m relieved she isn’t suffering anymore. I checked her air way closer up after she passed and there wasn’t any blockage or mucus at the opening of her air way. It wasn’t swollen or red either. I’m thinking she aspirated...

    Stridor PLEASE HELP

    Okay, I'll stick with the baytril. Coop is clean and well ventilated. We use sand as the bedding. She did this a month ago but was back to herself in the morning. Would I treat the same way if it is aspiration versus a virus? If it is a virus, would I see my other birds getting sick? Thank you...

    Stridor PLEASE HELP

    I have tylosin powder as well. Would that be better? I did start the Baytril though. I read on google to add a couple drops of saline solution to their nostrils 3-4x a day, do you recommend that? I have looked in her throat and don't see anything. I'm in North Central Texas, the DFW area. I also...

    Stridor PLEASE HELP

    https://www.backyardchickens.com/gallery/img_6404-mov-violet.7965992/ Hopefully you can see that. It is a video of her. She is laying down now and is tired, probably because she has been doing this all night but she was just standing up. What can I do to help her?

    Stridor PLEASE HELP

    Thank you for the response! She is active/alert. No bubbles or foam, no sneezing either just the stridor. I just noticed a tiny strand of mucus in her mouth. She is shaking her head every once in a while, guessing she is trying to cough it up? Not interested in food or water currently probably...

    Stridor PLEASE HELP

    I have a 22 week old pullet who had stridor last night when I checked on the chickens before dusk. I brought her in, set her up in a crate with a sheet tented over it and have a humidifier with Vetrx drops going. She did this once before about a month ago and was all better in the morning. This...

    @sourland @BigBlueHen53 Do you think attaching something like this to a hen saddle would work?

    Prevent mating??

    Hi all! I’m looking for advice regarding my Rooster/Hen situation. I have a 3 year old buff Orpington hen, Honey (see picture for her model pose 😆). She has some pretty severe arthritis that she is being treated for. She is our roosters absolute favorite, probably because she can’t run away. We...

    End of Life / Quality of Life help

    Hi all. I am at a loss for what to do for my Honey girl. She is a 3 year old Buff Orpington who has horrible arthritis. In the past two days it has become drastically worse. She is having trouble standing, has to flap her wings to stand up and her legs give out if she tries to stand for too long...

    Salpingitis / Lash egg treatment

    Hi all! I’m hoping for some guidance on how to treat my hen who just laid a lash egg. I’m ordering Baytril 10% Liquid and Amoxicilin 250mg (both to have on hand). Which one would be better? Can I do both or is that not recommended? Thanks!

    Yay! So happy to hear!! Sounds like you did a great job treating her. She’s very lucky to have you!

    Depressed pullet

    That's such great news. Coccidiosis makes them feel really yucky but I'm glad to hear she is improving! I have only used the powder but I do know the dosing is different for the liquid form of Corid. You don't have to treat the others in her flock if you don't want to. I have noticed when one of...
